What part of you is sore after a good round of golf? (and why?)

[bones75]

My lower back is by far the most sore part of body after I've shot a good round of golf.  Not sure why though.  I mean,  I know what I use it for, but not sure why it's the most sore part of my body, vs other areas.

I dont get sore after a round of golf. Now if I play 4 days in a row, varous muscles will be sore due to over use.  Most of the soreness is in my shoulders. Its a good kind of soreness because after a good  night's rest, its all gone. 

Now earlier this week I wheel barrowed 5 yards of pee gravel about 40 yards and spread it for a yard project. Took a few hours to do that. The next day I was sore all over.

I don't really get sore after golf but sometimes my ankles/calfs can be a little tight after the round.

I don't get sore playing a round, but after 4-5 large buckets with my training clubs then my lower back is also sore as with many other muscle groups. Not a bad sore, as it usually goes away after a day or two as well. It's usually the next morning that the  soreness kicks in. . .

I have a bad right knee, torn ligaments many many years ago now a constant ache. I take 2 aleve before a round and I wear a brace but a combination of walking and the motion of the swing and I am in need of a soak after 18. Some day I suppose I will be reduced to using a golf cart but other than places like Myrtle Beach where you cannot go without a cart at the times I wish to play, I walk and use a 3 wheel push cart

My knees will be sore the next morning unless I ice them. Also, my left ankle will be sore. I had an old injury there and I am just used to it being sore.

Probably my brain hurts he most. I tend to think about way too many things at the same time.

[Missouri Swede]

Mostly my pride ... 

[Club Rat]

Usually my golf buddies "wallet's" from loss of weight and value...

Good or bad round has nothing to do with being sore. If I am sore it's because I've aggravated a nagging injury or suffered a new one. But usually I notice it long before the round is over, unless it happened on the 18th hole. I'll sit it out and ride in the cart while my friends finish or get off the course before I'll risk making it worse. Without injury just playing golf doesn't make me sore.

I with Patch.  At the beginning of the season I got sore all over because I was out of shape and I walk the course.  Now however, after playing, and walking all summer, and after 3 or 4 days in a row I get sore around shoulders upper back and chest.  A day or two of rest and it goes away.

Must be the "old man's" clubs I bought this year.

Usually my right hand. Often the pinkie since I overlap and a few bad chunked shots will lead to a nice swollen knuckle. Seems to be happening less as my swing improves. 

[9wood]

My arms are usually the sorest after a round. More so now that I am 67 years old

[RayG]

Used to be my left side... Now it's overall fatigue, combined with issues in my lower back, along with specific issues with the rotator cuff in my right shoulder, and NOW, I'm getting a twinge of arthritis issues in the top knuckle of my middle finger of my left hand. Really noticed it after 3 rounds in 5 days while in Florida a couple of weeks ago- Painful and tender, with some swelling. great... just great...

[Natural Patrick]

My feet because I don't wear my arch supports in my golf shoes. My fingers on some days and I don't know why.

[JapanDave]

My nipples, they always rub on any type of shirt. Honest answer.

JapanDave - I used to have that issue when running marathons... two quick cures... Vaseline and/or bandaids. seriously. it works.

My feet. I am at an age where my arches have flattened a bit, and my feet have "grown." For the last few years, I have had a hard time finding comfortable shoes. At 61 I feel blessed to no back or leg issues.
